Tho corn pie to breakdown of the array in Cuba, a breakdown which, it is mani fest from tho facts presented in the I Roosevelt round robin, would, in spit s of all its gallantry, have rendered f? o utterly unfit to withstand tho attack of h an efficient enemy, was due not primarl- 1 ! ly to the Cuban climate (although that of course, played its part), but to bad management in the war department. This bad management is a well-known and generally acknowledged fact. To what Is it due? Some persons have sought, either through ignorance or for self-interest, to conceal the real truth. B and have said that these mistakes were inseparable from the haste with which war was forced upon us, and that, on tho whole, we have done fairly well. This is untrue. Even if the war had * been thrust upon us wit.li greater haste than we have had to contend with, an efficiently organized war department, and one conducted on sound principles, would have given us no such scandalous failure as our Spanish war has publish ed to tho world. This war was not thrust upon tho army any quicker than upon the navy, and yet the latter has been free from inefficiency of any sort. Tho troubh lies in tho simple fact that the war de partment has been conducted, not prim arily for tho benefit of tho country and a strong army, but at the expense of tlii'so objects and to advance private interests. Tho policy upon which Secretary Alger lias used his great powers is evidently that of making the country and its soldiers stepping-stone to his own political preferment. 'J h - is not the policy of Mr. Alger alone; if so, while many would have to weep for its results, it would nut lie dangerous for tho future. it is the policy of a school of politi cians, which is represented in every ' nation on tho globe, and by which Amorican politics is largely controlled. It is the policy which has eaten the ' heart out of Turkey, and under which ' Spain has withered for three hundred years. It is tho policy which Cameron , Quay, Martin and Magee have practiced ; during their public career, and which is today feeding upon tho vitality of i Pennsylvania, and its great cities, Pitts- i burg and Philadelphia. i A year ago some of our prominent i citlzons who are interested in reform, | unconsciously perhaps, adopted the < samo policy and helped to strengthen 1 Secretary Alger in it. They usod their I Influence in order to placate Quay, a - though they were politically opposed to him, by persuading tho authorities to have liis son, Lieutenant Quay, ad vanced over the heads of officers who should have taken precedence of him, to tho position of captain and quarter master in tho army. This advancement was made not for merit, which is a sound principle, but to gain a political 1 end, which is an unsound one. This is precisely Secretary Alger's 1 fault, it is Aigerism, Quayism, Martin ism—as you please to call it. The dif ference between what those gentlemen did, and in which they see no wrong, and what Secretary Alger lias done, whereby hundreds were buried in Cuba, and thousands returned in broken health t.o their homes, is a dilTorence of degree, not of kind. The efficient remedy is to be found not in one fierce transitory burst of wrath at Secretary Alger for what ho has done, but in a systematic demand that the spoils system be destroyed. This can only be done by noting each violation of the merit system and punish ing tho man who is guilty of it. We shall have no relief from this corruption of self-interest corroding tho public welfare until a body of men be found in tho country who will always act on the counter principle sufficiently large to hold tho balance of power. llow'm Tills I We offer One Hundred Dollnrti Re ward for anv caso of Catarrh that can not be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure.

THE NAMES OF FLOWERS Pfotty and Peculiar Nuhkh Qlven to Them and Their Origin. The gladiolus (little sword). Is so called probably from Its sharp, sword shapod leaves; and the egluutlue, (di minutive of the French aiguille,) from Its piercing, needle-like thorns, says a writer in St. Nicholas. Cocoanut Is from the Spanish coco, or bugbear, de scriptive of the Queer, Impish little face at the base of the hairy nut. Nasturtium, which means "nose twister," gives a picture of the per son smelling the blussom and lnvul untarily contorting his features from the stinging and pungent odor. Pink Introduces us to a group of words that at tlrst sight seem very oddly 111- matehed, for this daintily edged flower I gets Its name pink from the Dutch verb plnken, to pick out with u sharp j instrument, as a border Is pinked In j notched scallops for decoration. | Charming pictures are given by the "sun-dew," with Its sparkling leaves; "the Daisic, or else tho eye of tho day," as Chaucer culls It, from Its habit of opening at duwn, und the asters are the "stars" of the Held. The exquisite blue speedwell and tho beekoulug sprays of traveler's Joy seem to fling us greetings from mead ow ana hedge-row. Tho bright llttlo licartease preaches content, and there is u sort of moral in the rough brush wood nud tangled vines (lahi'UHca) and the kindred adjective brusque. Tho old word tensen meant to curd wool, and hence we get both "tease," which Is a rubbing up the fur In a wroug di rection, to speak figuratively, and teasel, a prickly, tlilstle-llko plant whose flower-heads, when dry, are sometimes used for raising the nap on woolen cloth. l.nrge Freight. Cars. The introduction of freight cars of 80,000 pounds to 110,000 pounds car rying capacity renewed the "large car" quest km, which is always a fruit ful subject for discussion among rail way officials of the operating and ear departments. The 00,000-pound car which has boon practically the stand ard, dutes hack only to 1885. In 1875 the normal capacity was from 20,000 to 25,000 pounds, nnd in 1885 this nor mal capacity had grown to 40,000 and 50,000. In tliut year a committee of the Master Cur Builders' Association made a report recommending certain standard dimensions for 00,000-pouud cars, hut such cars wore then quite exceptional. Few ears of loss thau 00,000 pounds capacity are now built for ordinary freight service, hut on tho other huiul there Is a decided tendency to increase the capacity to 70,000 nud 80,000 pounds. Even this Is not the limit, however, for several hundred steel cars of 100,000 pounds, and even 110.- 000 pounds capacity, arc In service. The Whitehead Torpedo. Tlit. l Whitehead torpedo, of which so Inuch is heard, Is 1G feet 5 inches long, 17.7 inches greatest diameter, anil weighs ready for service, 1,100 pounds. It carries 220 pounds of wet guncotton at a speed of about 28 knots per hour, nnd ut that speed it has a range of about 850 yards. This tor pedo Is built of steel and Is propelled by two two-bladed screws, revolving In opposite directions on the same axis, to neutralize the rolling tenden cy of the torpedo. The screws are operated by a three-cylinder engine driven by air compressed to 1,350 pounds per square Inch; nud an Intri cate apparatus, called the Obry geur, Is used to automatically keep the tor pedo pointed straight during the ruu. This Obry gear Is essentially a gyro scope controlling the valves of the Steering engine, which operates two rigidly connected vertical rudders. Clipper Supply of Newfoundland. The copper supply of Newfoundland is said to he practically Inexhaustible. The Island is now the sixth copper pro ducing country In the world. This in dustry was tlrst established In New foundland In 1804, when Tilt Cove began to occupy the attention of cap italists. During recent years very sat isfactory results have been achieved In that district. These mines pro duced Inst year over seventy thousand tons of ore at a profit of more than (115,i)( if). The records for 18UB nre somewhat Incomplete, hut they show an exiort from Newfoundland of 400,- 311 tons of copper ore, 50,730 tous of regulus, and 5,240 of Ingots, valued at about $11,500,000. It is estimated that the country lias produced fifty thou sand tous of flue copper, worth fifteen million dollars, tho greater part of this being turned out duriug the past twenty-five years. Ancient Marble Qunrrler. The ancient marble quarries In Syn aada are again being worked. The quarries are situate some 20 ltlloms from Karnhissar, and tlie marbles, tailed Phrygian, Mygdoulans or Do tlniia, were in ancient llomo regarded as emblems of luxury and wealth. Many sorts arc found, namely, white statuary marble of a remarkably fine renin; a transparent marble similar to myx and also yellow, blue and gray narbles, all very fine. Now Swedish Itnllwnv Both houses of the Swedish Tteks lag have adopted In principle the Gov i irnment bill for the construction of a railway from Gillwarn to tho North ern frontier. Sweden, as well as Nor tvay, has to a great extent been neg cctcil by our manufacturers, although they would offer a very valuable out <-t for most of our manufactured foods. lie- This Is the list time I will ever tsk you to marry me.

AN UP-TO-DATE YOUNG LADY. | A big and kindly policeman had a little tot by the hand, and he was fol lowed by a crowd which pestered him with suggestions until he more than once showed signs of losing his natur ally good temper. Some one had told him that the tiny little girl who toddled by his side was lost, and a dozen or more knew that her home lay In as many different di rections. To all his questions the little one would only reply:— "Me's hungry; me want something to cat." The bluccoat urged the baby girl to tell him where she lived, and then mamma would give her her dinner, but she only dragged at his big rough hand, drawing him to the corner of the street, where there was a cake shop. When they reached this the klud hoarted fellow took her In and bought her plenty to eat out of his own pocket. Then he again usked her where she lived, but she still cried: — "Me's thirsty; me wants a dink." Back again the whole length of the street went the pair, followed by the j crowd, until at another corner they j reached a soda water fountain, and | there the little lost child was re- j galed with a cooling drink. Then as the policeman, falling to find any one who could tell him where j the child lived, was about to march her | to the police station, the little tot smiled up into his eyes and said: "Me's seepy now. Doodby. Me doin' home." She slipped Into a doorway which they had passed a dozen times, shout ing:—"Mamma! mamma! Me's been for a nice walk wlz a real live great big cop!" And the crowd cried, "Does your mother know yer out?" to the police man. A Chance Hectlniv* A plump and ruddy gentleman on a ( bicycle rolled contentedly down Fit- ! teenth Street the other afternoon. At j New York Avenue he met a young ! woman on a wheel, and turned sharply j aside to avoid a collision. She tacked ; In the same direction, saw her error, and turned the other way just as the ; plump gentleman acted on a similar Impulse. They wabbled, and then, just in the nick of time, both dismounted, i The ruddy gentleman was purple with j rage. "Madam," he snorted, "what on ; earth do you mean? Did you want to kill me?" The young woman was in a bit of a rage herself. She remounted. | "Oh, dear, no," she said icily, as she ' rolled away, "I'm not the fool killer." j lllUHtrulcil l'lirase. y Pi| "Assault and Battery."

Old Prospector Mnlcet* a Fortune Out of the ••Tailings.- There are some men In this world who have to toil for a mere apology of a living—and then there are others. Que of these latter is Mr. Luce, of the Curgo Muehacho. Luce's experience reads like a romance. For twenty years he hud knocked about the coast, on the desert, In the mountains, pros pecting and mining, and had finally, by hard work and the closest economy, managed to scrape together a few hundred dollars. One day on the shores of the Colo rado some twenty miles north of Yu rna, he met an old Mexican, who told him of a descried mine some ten miles hack from the river and seven miles north of Hedges. Luce's Interest wus aroused, und ho visited that mine, to find there an abandoned twenty-stump mill which had pounded away l'or many years und flnully shut down. Luce examined the property and dis covered tliut tliqre was a Binall moun tain of tuilings, the accumulation of years, pllod up behind tlio mill, lie tested these tailings with cyanide. Then he measured the pile roughly and estimated tliero wus over 100,000 tons of tlio stuff there. That night he wrote to the president of the com pany In New York City offering ten cents per ton for the tulllugs on u basis of 100,000 tons. The president read the letter, looked surprised, and called the directors together. They read the letter, looked wise, tapped their foreheads significantly and laughed to each other. "This poor fellow Luce should bo called 'goose,'" said one. "Desert's proved too much for him —probably gone daft," observed an other. Not one of them thought these tail ings were worth anything, and they had almost entirely forgotten that old mine out on the Colorado desert. But they answered the letter, tolling Luce to go ahead. On receipt of the letter Luce Imme diately erected a cyanide plant, costing him about $11)0 of his own and his friends' money. Then he hired fifteen Mexicans and Indians and began work on these tailings. One day some representatives of the mine company were returning from San Francisco, and passing through the desert, they thought they would visit the mine. "How ore you?" said amce. "Glad to see you. By the way, we might as Well fix up our little accounts uo-w as at any time," and so saying he threw the astonished Gothamites a check for SIO,OOO. Then he explained that in the nine mouths he had been running the cyanide plant he had cleaned up $4.5,000, and that there was : plenty of tailing In sight to net him $fi()0,000 within three years. Wortln of Sir Wulter lU-uut. Sir Walter Besant, writing iu the Louilon Queen, say a: "A Spanish lady has written to the editor of the paper concerning certain remarks of mine al>out the sympathies | of the iiiugllsh race. I am very sorry that any words of mine should have given ofl'enae to any Spaniard. His tory, however, cannot be set aside out of politeness. The Spanish uatiou lias always shown many great and noble qualities; never at any time have they failed to command the re spect of their enemies; but we cannot help remembering that tliey were 0111 enemies from the middle of the Six teenth to the iH'ginning of the Nine teenth Century; we Htood for freedom of thought; they stood for authority; we stood for the liberty of the peoplej they stood for despotism. To recall these facts, and all that they mean, ought not to offend unyono. I take oil i my hat with the greatest respect to I the Spaniard. 4 Sir, you are a gentle ] man by blrtli and long desceut; you are also a gentleman by breeding; you j are a gentleman of courage tried nnd proved, and of patriotism undoubted; i you arc like Don Quixote for honor and ! for courtesy. But, sir, you do not ; think as we do; and iu the present 1 crisis our sympathies are naturally with the people who do think as we I do.'" Noml of Covering During Sleep. j The reason it is necessary to be well j covered while sleeping Is that when | the body lies down It Is the intention j of nature that It should rest, and the j heart especially should be relieved of j its regular work temporarily. So that j organ makes ten strokes a minute less than when the body Is lu an upright position. This means (100 strokes iu sixty minutes. Therefore, lu the eight hours that a man usually spends lu taking Ills night's rest, the heart is saved nearly 5,000 Hlrokos. As It pumps six ounces of blood with each stroke it lifts 30,000 ounces less of blood in this night's session than it would during the day, when a man Is usually In an upright position. Now, the body is dependent for its warmth on the vigor of the circulation, and ns (lie blood flows so much more slowly through the veins when one is lying down, the warmth lost in the reduced circulation Is supplied by extra cov erings. A New I'll tent Cork. A German patent has recently been grunted for making corks fit tighter. The surface of the cork—that Is the oroad, ring surface which comes In contact with the glass—is burnt In inch a manner, or treated with a cor rosive, that In place of the smooth, plush-like surface, such of a rough ap pearance is obtained. The complete tightening is brought about by in creasing the adhesion to the glass. A French firm has announced that t has devised an npparatus by which i single bicycle may he run at a speed if thirty miles an hour, und a taudein it fifty. . _ ..

The prize of a guineau for the heel definition of "An Ideal Husband" was awarded by an English paper foi the following: "One who nobly nnd unselfishly takes his part In the responsibilities and difficulties of everyday life, and, by reason of bis superior strength, ad ded to tenderness, guides and encour ages lils wife iu hers." "Here are a few of the other "Ideals" sent In: "One who loves deeply, rebukes justly, rules lightly." "One who Is kind nnd considerate In little things." "He who takes the hack sent when Ills wife wants the front one." "My Ideal husband Is a man of pence und consummate tact, never omitting to rub his boots on the door mat."

Story of Oiifou Victoria* Here Is u pleasant little fairy tale about Queen Victoria, told by the cor respondent of n San Francisco paper. "One evening after n largo dinner party at Windsor, the Queen, with her guests und members of the royal household, was In the drawing-room, when a lamp commenced to sinolto. The Queen, who was near by, prompt ly turned the wick down. "A huly-ID-waJtlng, iislmmed that she should lmvu neglected any oppor tunity of service, upologlzlngly asked why the Queen hud attended to It herself. " 'Because,' said her Majesty, 'had I said to you the lamp was smoking, you would have told the equerry, who In turn would have told a servant, who would have searched for an es pecial footman, while all the time the lamp would have continued smoking, so I preferred to turn It down my self." Frt-Nli Flsli From Suit. For those who desire dainty fare at the smallest possible cost, salt cod may, with hut slight extra trouble, he made delicious.

A fortune with her frying pan is what Mrs. A. I). Marshall, a handsome young English woman, can boast of having earned. A number of years ago she laid the foundation of her present prosperity by opening a modest but very practical school of cookery.

Tie iinep ind MM If you want to be well, see to it that your Kidnoys and Blood arc in a healthy condition. It is an easy matter to learn what state your Kidnoys are in. Place some of your urine in a bottle or tumbler, and leave it stand one day and night. A sediment at the bottom shows that you have a dangerous Kidney disease. Pains in the small of the back indicate the same thing. So docs a desire to pass water often, particularly at night, and a scalding pain in urinating Is still another certain sign.
